"This is one that many Switch fans have been waiting for!@Team17Ltd and @PlaytonicGames' Yooka-Laylee will be getting a physical release on the Nintendo Switch!It will be available exclusively through us at http://www.limitedrungames.com !"

I actually was waiting for this to happen (and it was the main reason I was watching Limited Run Games' E3 presentation yesterday). As a day 1 Kickstarter backer I own the physical PC version (which I beat in April 2017) and also received a digital download code for the Switch version. But I gave it away to a friend since I wasn't interested in having it digital-only. I'm happy to pre-order this asap and finally play this again - but this time on a Nintendo console where it belongs and including the many updates that were released since my last playthrough.

(Since everyone is using my thread which was actually 2 minutes late, maybe someone could merge both threads?)

Maybe they'll release some kind of physical "Ultimate Edition" a few years down the line when all patches and DLC have been finished? (WayForward did that for Shantae: Half-Genie Hero)I wouldn't expect any differences for the "Limited Run" version, though.

Have you (or anyone else reading this who'd care to comment) bought from them before and/or can confirm the 14 day open pre-order window is definitely how they do things now? Because I read the FAQ and the "Buying Guide" (https://limitedrungames.com/pages/buying-guide) on their website and that made it sound like they create the limited number of games first and then release them for sale at two set times on one specific day and that's the only chance you get. I'm wondering if that was their old method of selling (or if I just interpreted it wrong) and so just wanted to confirm that they do indeed do open pre-orders now.

The Only thing I hate about this is the fact people were asking for a Physical release & playtonic were like we will see if the Demand is there & how well the Digital release goes. That is why I was holding off buying the Digital version & plus I have in physical form on Xbox One & PS4. Now Playtonic know that the demand is there for a Physical release they cant be bothered to do it themselves & release it just like they did for the Xbox One & PS4 my opinion if they are not going to release it like they did with Xbox One & PS4 don't bother releasing it in physical form at all as now I have to import a physical copy from the U.S. to the U.K. which means I have to try & make sure & hopefully someone is in to accept it just in case there is a surplus charge. Yet if they released it normally people could just go to the shop & pick it up.
